Burning time on low heat fire
slowly .. steadily … tediously -
as it melts I look solemnly
at few words dissolved
into drops of scatted ink
like heated fire
spreading ... flaming ...
intensifying the gathering air
as brazen winds push the casement
and phantoms await encroachment
as storms build their mighty force
and awaits their loud captain - -
Shall we wait, asks myself
Shall we run, asks again
as mind holds fort over thy rein
and heart gallops to a country
far on northern plains
I find my sun beside me
beneath my clouds awakened.

At least put a photo that is not manipulated... the picture is of the famous "Raising Flag at Iwo Jima" which has the American flag ...
Be proud, be Indian.

Annonymous: First of all have the guts to put up ur name and identity ..esp when u r blaming or accusing someone .... cowardice has no father and it is always easier to hide behind ur shame ... I need not be taught how to be an Indian .. Patriotism needn't be taught as you are trying to do here .. and please go ahead and do whatever u want at ur place .. this page belongs to me and I decide what I put up here and how I put up .. I need not have my thoughts aligned to urs ... and if u decide to reply to my comment ... atleast have the courage to reveal ur identity, otherwise please simply don't bother ....
